An Outgoing Woman

Christophe Blanc directs his nuanced character study of a nurse, wife, and mother of three who is on the verge of a breakdown. After learning that her husband of 15 years is having an affair with his young slatternly secretary, Francoise (Agnes Jaoui) throws her spouse out on his ear and starts frequenting seedy bars.

As she slowly disconnects from her job and her children, she starts hanging out at boxing rings, having cheap and easy sex. and eventually ending up in the same hospital where she works.
